Looking forward to the new series of "Inside No 9" tonight!

Me too! 

I'm just watching the film Looper on BBC Two. I just dropped on it and I kinda like the premise.

Turned out to be not a bad watch for a random find on a Saturday evening. I did however keep thinking Repo Men for some reason.

I have that programme on with Timothy West and Prunella Scales on a narrowboat in France.

They do seem to bump into things... a lot!

Poldark

i'm loving it

Ordinary Lies tonight

'Back in time for Dinner' first though. 8 pm, BBC2

  I can recall wallpaper like that..,

hang on.. she doesn't know that gammon is from a pig?

I think that some of this is just made up - for effect!

They said that the 70s would be the first decade that the parents would remember living through, so that means they're not hugely younger than me. So how come none of the stuff we've seen from the 50s onwards would faze me, but they act like it's all alien to them!

I agree... gammon - is that pork, she says.... and she couldn't fry an egg.   I think she's just a hopeless cook!

Me too - can't remember where I remember it from.

I do... my best mate's house - and they had the same crockery too.  

To give her her due, it was said that in their normal life, he does most of the cooking.

I'm no cook.. but I can fry an egg  

If you use the can opener the right way round it's amazing how easy it is!

I'm wondering if you can still buy that cook book!

Tinned new potatoes were lovely!

.. or maybe not....

Yes

The cottage pie changed my mind though...

Cod in butter sauce... 

You don't HAVE to use EVERY recipe - and you're allowed to alter them to taste.

Oh well.. in that case..  

nah.. still no 

Really? Yum yum. I'll have your helping.

It has to be Birdseye though.

I'm laughing at the health freaks eating brown rice in a macrobiotic cafe .... and you can hardly see them through the haze of cigarette smoke...

I have memories of living on it when I was dieting back in the day - it was low calorie.   Cod and watery sauce with cabbage... 

it's probably better now than it was then? 

Well mine was parsley.

I've never milked any animal, but you don't do it from the rear. Have this lot actually had any sort of education?

I always knew you were posh!

Popcorn....I've got that single!

Mungo Jerry - In the Summertime.

Hot butter?  They're not sticking to the years with the music... that was early 70s... and the keep playing Fleetwood Mac 'Never going back' that was on Rumours in '77

In return for me having your cod in sauce, you can have my Pot Noodle - I may possibly have mentioned before that I don't like pasta!

I like pasta... but I'm not sure where there's any in a pot noodle?    Isn't that just strips of plasticy cardboard calling themselves noodles?

That Indian looks delicious though...
